Have you started building your energy workforce for the future?

Most large organizations worldwide realize that digitization, automation, and artificial intelligence have arrived. It’s no longer a question of “if” or “when” they’ll make an impact on production, innovation, and HR. No, this Fourth Industrial Revolution is here and accelerating at a mind-boggling pace. But while most technology-heavy industries are embracing this future, many in Energy are waiting.
